Why Global-Link
Keeping a team connected used to mean a trailer, a generator, and a technician. Global-Link folds it into one carry-on case: ^5G with dual SIMs^, ^Starlink^ powered straight off the case, and WiFi — switching between them ^automatically^ — behind one encrypted network that runs ^24 hours^ on its own battery.
Uplinks — 5G · SAT · WiFi

Rapid deploy
Open the case. You're online.
No rack, no generator, no truck roll — power on and the network stands up around you, then follows the mission through cell, satellite, and WiFi without dropping the team.
Two ways to stay connected
A phone hotspot.
Or a comms gateway.
Tethering the team to somebody's phone works until the first dead zone. Global-Link carries three independent paths to the grid, encrypts everything, and runs all day — from one case.
| Improvised Phone hotspot | Solace Global-Link 5G This page | |
|---|---|---|
| Paths to the grid | Phone hotspot One carrier. Where it dies, you die with it. | Global-Link 5G 5G dual SIM → satellite → WiFi, switched automatically. |
| Speed | Phone hotspot Whatever one phone can pull. | Global-Link 5G Peak 2.8 Gbps down / 900 Mbps up over 5G. |
| Team capacity | Phone hotspot A handful of devices, best-effort. | Global-Link 5G WiFi 6 for the element, plus 1 + 5 Gbps Ethernet. |
| Security | Phone hotspot Consumer-grade, unmanaged. | Global-Link 5G AES-256 with IPsec VPN, managed from the cloud. |
| Endurance | Phone hotspot Kills the phone by lunch. | Global-Link 5G 24 hours on a 99 Wh battery — and charges your devices. |
| Environment | Phone hotspot A phone in the rain. | Global-Link 5G MIL-standard case, IP67 ports, −15 to +60 °C. |
One case. Every path to the grid, handled.

The questions
teams ask first.
Procurement and integration support direct from sales.
How does the failover actually work?+
Global-Link connects over 5G/4G first, using dual nano SIMs that fail over between carriers automatically. If cellular drops, it switches to a satellite terminal — like a Starlink Mini — on the Ethernet WAN port, and if that's gone too, it joins any WiFi network it knows. The switching is automatic; the network your team is on never changes.
Does it work with Starlink?+
Yes — it's built for it. A dedicated 100 W USB-C output powers a Starlink Mini straight off the case, and the dish plugs into the Ethernet WAN port. When the cell grid disappears, traffic fails over to the satellite automatically.
Does it work with TAK?+
Yes. Your EUDs join the case's WiFi 6 network like any other network — ATAK, TAK Server traffic, video feeds, and voice all ride the best available uplink through the encrypted VPN tunnel. One case keeps the whole element's common operating picture live.
How long does it run?+
Up to 24 hours on the internal 99 Wh battery. It's also the team's power hub: two 100 W USB-C PD ports and a 10 W wireless charging pad top off EUDs and accessories, and the onboard touch display shows battery, temperature, and power status at a glance.
How rugged is it?+
It lives in a military-standard case with shock absorption, IP67-sealed ports, and stainless-steel hardware, operating from −15 °C to +60 °C. At 321 × 229 × 111 mm with a TSA flight-approved battery, it travels as a carry-on.
Can we manage it remotely?+
Yes. Cloud-based device management lets your comms lead monitor, reconfigure, and troubleshoot any fielded Global-Link without hands on the case. It also runs containerized applications on-device — 1.2 GB RAM and 750 MB storage — for edge workloads.
What colors does it come in — and how do I buy?+
Black, OD Green, Tan, and Orange. Order straight from this page — pick your color above. For team buys and program quotes, email sales@getgotak.com.
